for Microsoft Office 97. For the Referral program, we have created
a Value Package composed of an interactive software training
CD-ROM plus a companion book for each Microsoft Office 97 tool:
Word 97, Excel 97, Access 97, PowerPoint 97, Windows 95 and
Windows 98. Each package has over 8 hours of interactive software
training on CD-ROM plus a 144 page step-by-step companion book,
covering over 300 skills. The Series teaches both software skills
and business skills. The emphasis is on learning skills that
pay off in the job market. |

The Inter@ctiveLearning Series is perfect for anyone who wants
to learn more software and business skills! Its highly interactive
format makes learning software and business skills a lot of

exceptionally powerful learning tool that's fast, convenient

How
do I install the LAN versions of the Inter@ctiveLearning Series?
[top
of page] |
| |
|
1)
Create a directory for the files on the server. (ex:
ILS_WORD2000)
|
| 2)
Each training product, must be kept in a separate directory. |
| 3)
Copy the contents of the CD into this directory. |
| 4)
On each client machine, run the setup program, found in
the WIN95 sub directory of multimedia content. (SETUP.EXE)
This file must be run from the server, not the CD, as
it uses it's location to create links. ( all this does
in install two fonts needed by the system) |
| 5)
Users start the training by double clicking on the "xxxTOC.EXE"
file to start. ("xxx" indicates the product
selected.) The Table of Contents file (TOC) will be the
only application in the main directory of the product. |
| 6)
Users may create a shortcut to this file on the users
desktop. |
| |
| Note:
We are currently developing a "LAN navigation tool"
which will enable users to select the desired training
from those products currently installed. We will send
this to you when it is available. |
|
It
is possible to run this product from a shared CD-ROM,
however, the product will run much slower if more than
just a few users are accessing it (this has to do with
the increased seek time of CD-ROM drives). For this
reason, it is not recommended to install the product
in this manor.
|
| |
| InteractiveLearning
Series: Network Requirements |
| Presentational
sessions in the InteractiveLearning Series (digital simulations
and audio) average about 17-20kps/user. Interactive sessions
are far less. SmartQuiz and other exam sessions are nearly
zero. |
| The
InteractiveLearning Series network edition should not
be played directly from a CD-ROM over a network because
multiple users requesting different sessions quickly overwhelm
a CD. Therefore, network installations should always be
installed on a network hard disk drive. Only the Professional
and Enterprise Editions can be installed on a network |
| Small
Business Editions will not play on a network and require
a CD-ROM inserted in the CD-ROM drive of each workstation.
|
| |
|
If you are interested in obtaining an Intranet Edition,
please contact
us.
